Answer 1

kickflip just takes a lotttt of practice, no one gets them right away. you just have to snap and jump and kick off the pocket of the nose, where the curve begins, keep your heels off the board a little. and dont forget to actually jump so the board can get a nice flip and you stay over the board.

and for a pop shuv it, when the board spins 180..it usually ends up to your side, well since your facing sideways, it would end up in front of you..and if you just jump up while the board shifts in front of you or to your side or however you want me to say that..if you ust jump up when you land the board would be not under you anymore

so just shift in front of you a little when you pop shuvit when you pop and spin it make sure your actually jumping a little high, so you have time to shift over with the board

i know i explained it confusing sorry but its hard to explain over the computer hope i helped though keep skating bro
